While dieting, the dietero will have an austere and plain food diet, without salt or sugar. They will only eat green parboiled plantains (inguiris), oats, or rice. The dietero cannot be seen by another person, only by the healer, who will give them the preparation of the plant being dieted and will prepare and carry their food. During the diet, they will be in isolation from any personal relationships, but not of sensory stimuli, since one is in the jungle, in contact with the song of the birds, the vegetation, and the sound of the river.
As humans have evolved as part of this sylvan cosmos, which in its various ecological expressions are found all over the planet, and actually ARE the planet, we have had to internalize this culture within our own to maintain equilibrium with it. To the degree we have done so, we are indigenous to our environment, prosper as a species, and flourish. To the degree we have become unaware of this culture through our own inattention, greed, separative ideologies, or whatever, and replaced it with the many variations of human chauvinism, we suffer the ill effects
Este día es para comer alimentos naturales. Este día iremos con granos integrales. Los granos enteros, trigo integral y alimentos integrales son ricos en nutrientes que son esenciales para la salud y la pérdida de peso: fibra, vitaminas y minerales.

NOTE: Recently, since foreigners have begun drinking ayahuasca and a tourist industry has formed around ayahuasca ceremonies and treatments with curanderos, a new diet has emerged that most people refer to as the ayahuasca diet. This diet was designed to keep people safe during the ceremonies. Ayahuasca can have dangerous effects when mixed with certain substances, namely pharmaceutical medication and most specifically anti-depressant medication or SSRIs. Other negative effects are possible when mixing ayahuasca with some foods as well, like dairy products, but this diet is different from the dieta described above. While the ayahuasca diet can be used to demonstrate one’s determination and is a good idea, it should not be confused with the traditional dieta that forms such an integral part of the science of plant medicine in the Amazon Rainforest.
In our space, people afflicted with diverse physical and mental health problems are offered the opportunity to deepen their healing and learning journeys. We present an opportunity for people to rediscover themselves and their human universal birthright to the full enjoyment of peace, tranquility, and happiness in life. We offer this through dieting powerful plant teachers in the traditional Shipibo tradition, following the teachings of the Shipibo spiritual masters and ancestors who have walked this path for thousands of years. We will also be working with different rituals of energetic and spiritual cleansing such as flower baths and massages.
Jason came to the Temple in 2012. After having worked with ayahuasca quite extensively, he began the process of dieting plants. He has dieted in the Shipibo tradition and began working with Maestro Ernesto in 2013, delving deep into the world of dieting. Through a prolonged apprenticeship and training, he was eventually given authorization to begin working with plants. After working as a tabaquero, he was also given the blessing to administer diets, and to share in the tradition from which he has learned and which has taught him so much. He has been living, learning, and working in the jungle for the last six years.
According to Schultes and Winkelman (1996), “Diet is viewed as a tool helping to maintain the altered state of consciousness (ASC) which permits the plant teacher to instruct, provide knowledge, and enable the initiate to acquire power. The diet is viewed as a means of making the mind operate differently, providing access to wisdom and lucid dreams. These regimens provide strength . . . .” In Luna’s studies of aya-huasca shamanism in Peru, he likewise says that the “necessity of diet — which includes sexual segregation — to learn from the plants was stressed by every vegetalista I met” (1991).
It is our intention to promote the revival and revaluation of our ancestral knowledge regarding the use of medicinal plants. We believe this to be important for the development of intercultural health. We have achieved this through our work with the Temple of the Way of Light, and are now pleased to extend our work and offer dietas at our family center, Niwe Rao Xobo, in Pucallpa, Peru.
Buenas tardes, hace ya un tiempo he iniciado un cuidado intensivo para bajar de peso, he hecho ejercicio a diario de hora y media a dos horas, he hecho dieta, no comiendo harinas, suspendiendo los dulces y comiendo cinco veces al día, desafortunamente no he podido bajar de peso, pero si de talla; sufro de hipotiroidismo y la verdad me gustaría que me colaborarán con una dieta saludable.
No trates de privarte de alimento. Descuidar el consumo suficiente de calorías de forma regular puede ocasionar el efecto contrario de lo que buscas y, si lo haces de forma prolongada, puedes poner tu vida en peligro. Si has tratado de bajar de peso omitiendo varias comidas o reduciendo de forma drástica la cantidad de calorías que ingieres diariamente, habla con un profesional de la salud para obtener información sobre los trastornos alimentarios.

In this way a rain forest can be understood as a kind of “city,” a cosmopolitan center of terrestrial life. It is a gathering place of diverse life forms with high population density and a limited resource base. Its inhabitants traffic in fertility and vitality, and there exists a sophisticated culture to work the philosophies of reciprocity, the art forms of diversity, and the languages of interspecies dialogue, all necessary to maintain a fine-tuned ecological balance.

Once the terms of the dieta are established, the curandero or student will then open the dieta, or have the dieta opened for them, as is the case with most students. This is an ‘official’ announcement, made in an ayahuasca ceremony through the use of healing songs, called icaros, that the dieta has begun, or will begin the following day. An announcement can also be made by speaking it outloud or in one’s mind to the physical plant in person, which would be done either the day of the ceremony or the following day, to help demonstrate the determination of the curandero or student and thus strengthen the connection to the plant.
